Implements the Model Context Protocol specification as a Django extension, translating between standardized MCP protocol messages (tools, resources, prompts) and Django application functionality. Uses a layered architecture with transport abstraction (HTTP/STDIO), session management, and a metaclass-based tool registry that auto-discovers and registers tools during application startup. Enables any MCP-compatible client (Claude AI, Google ADK, custom agents) to invoke Django operations through typed tool interfaces.
Unique: Implements MCP as a first-class Django extension with metaclass-based auto-discovery and multi-transport support (HTTP/STDIO), rather than bolting MCP onto existing REST APIs. Provides four declarative tool definition patterns (MCPToolset, ModelQueryToolset, DRF Integration, Low-Level API) that map directly to Django's ORM and view patterns.
vs alternatives: Tighter Django integration than generic MCP servers; auto-discovers tools from Django models and views without manual registration, and supports both WSGI and ASGI without code changes.
Provides a metaclass-based tool registration system where developers define tools by subclassing MCPToolset and decorating methods with @mcp_tool. The metaclass automatically discovers decorated methods at class definition time, extracts type hints and docstrings to generate MCP-compatible schemas, and registers tools in a central registry. Tools are exposed to MCP clients with full type information, parameter validation, and automatic serialization of return values.
Unique: Uses Python metaclasses to auto-discover and register tools at class definition time, extracting schemas from type hints and docstrings without requiring separate schema files or configuration. Integrates directly with Django's import system for zero-configuration tool discovery.
vs alternatives: Simpler than manual schema definition (vs. Anthropic's tool_use API) and more Pythonic than JSON-based tool registries; leverages Python's type system for automatic validation and serialization.
Provides a Django management command (mcp_inspect) that introspects the MCP server configuration and registered tools during local development. Displays tool schemas, parameters, descriptions, and authentication requirements in human-readable format. Enables developers to test tool invocation locally without connecting an MCP client, simulating tool calls with custom parameters and inspecting results. Supports schema validation and debugging of tool definitions.
Unique: Provides a Django management command for local inspection and testing of MCP tools without requiring an MCP client, enabling rapid development iteration.
vs alternatives: More convenient than connecting an MCP client for development; integrates with Django's management command system for familiar developer experience.
Enforces Django permission checks on a per-tool basis, integrating with Django's permission system to restrict tool access based on user roles and permissions. Tools can declare required permissions through configuration or decorators, and the framework validates user permissions before tool execution. Supports both model-level permissions (add, change, delete) and custom permission definitions. Permission checks are enforced at the transport layer (HTTP) and during tool execution, with proper error responses for unauthorized access.
Unique: Integrates Django's permission system with MCP tool execution, enforcing per-tool permission checks based on user roles and custom permissions. Supports both model-level and custom permissions.
vs alternatives: Leverages Django's mature permission system vs. building custom auth; enables fine-grained access control without additional infrastructure.
Supports running multiple independent MCP server instances within a single Django application, each with its own isolated tool registry and configuration. Enables different MCP servers to expose different tool collections to different client groups (e.g., admin tools vs. user tools). Each server instance maintains separate authentication, permission, and session configuration. Multiple servers can coexist in the same Django application through separate URL routes or STDIO processes.
Unique: Supports multiple independent MCP server instances with isolated tool registries and configurations within a single Django application, enabling tool segmentation by client group or access level.
vs alternatives: More flexible than single-server deployments; enables fine-grained tool access control without running separate applications.
Automatically generates MCP tools from Django ORM models by subclassing ModelQueryToolset and specifying a model class. The system introspects model fields, relationships, and querysets to generate parameterized query tools (list, filter, get, create, update, delete) with schema validation. Implements a query DSL that translates MCP tool parameters into Django ORM calls, with support for filtering, pagination, ordering, and field selection. Handles serialization of model instances to JSON via Django REST Framework serializers.
Unique: Introspects Django ORM models to auto-generate parameterized query tools with schema validation, supporting filtering, pagination, and ordering through a query DSL that translates to Django ORM calls. Integrates with DRF serializers for automatic model-to-JSON conversion.
vs alternatives: Eliminates manual view/serializer creation for model exposure vs. building custom REST endpoints; schema generation from model fields is more maintainable than hardcoded tool definitions.
Provides decorators and publishing functions that expose existing Django REST Framework views as MCP tools without modifying view code. Introspects DRF view classes to extract serializer schemas, HTTP methods, and permission classes, then generates MCP tool schemas that map to view endpoints. Handles request/response translation between MCP protocol and DRF's request/response objects, including authentication token injection and permission enforcement.
Unique: Introspects DRF views and serializers to auto-generate MCP tool schemas, enabling existing REST APIs to be exposed as MCP tools without code changes. Handles request/response translation and permission enforcement transparently.
vs alternatives: Avoids code duplication vs. building parallel MCP and REST interfaces; leverages DRF's mature serialization and permission system for tool validation.
Supports both HTTP and STDIO transports for MCP protocol communication, allowing deployment in different environments without code changes. HTTP transport runs as a Django view (MCPServerStreamableHttpView) integrated into URL routing, supporting both WSGI and ASGI application servers. STDIO transport enables local/containerized deployments where the MCP server communicates via standard input/output streams. Transport abstraction layer handles protocol message serialization, session management, and error handling uniformly across both transports.
Unique: Provides unified transport abstraction supporting both HTTP (cloud-native) and STDIO (local/containerized) deployments without code changes. HTTP transport integrates as a Django view with full WSGI/ASGI compatibility; STDIO transport enables local development and containerized deployments.
vs alternatives: More flexible than single-transport MCP servers; WSGI/ASGI support enables deployment on any Django-compatible platform without framework-specific code.

Unique: Exposes Supabase Storage's S3-compatible API as MCP tools with automatic authentication and signed URL generation, eliminating the need for agents to manage cloud storage credentials or generate temporary access tokens
vs alternatives: More integrated than generic S3 MCP tools because it leverages Supabase's built-in bucket policies and authentication rather than requiring separate AWS credentials
Performs semantic similarity searches on vector embeddings stored in Supabase PostgreSQL using pgvector extension, translating natural language queries into embedding vectors and executing cosine/L2 distance searches. Integrates with embedding providers (OpenAI, Cohere) or uses pre-computed embeddings, enabling agents to retrieve semantically similar documents or records without full-text search limitations.
Unique: Integrates pgvector directly into MCP tools with automatic embedding generation and distance calculation, enabling agents to perform semantic search without managing separate vector database infrastructure
vs alternatives: More efficient than external vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate) for Supabase users because it colocates embeddings with relational data, reducing network latency and simplifying data synchronization
Exposes Supabase database schema information through MCP tools, allowing agents to discover table structures, column types, constraints, and relationships without manual schema documentation. Queries PostgreSQL information_schema and Supabase metadata tables to dynamically generate schema descriptions, enabling agents to construct valid queries and understand data relationships.
Unique: Queries Supabase's PostgreSQL information_schema directly through MCP tools, enabling agents to dynamically discover and adapt to database schemas without pre-configured schema definitions
vs alternatives: More flexible than static schema definitions because it reflects live database state, including recent migrations or schema changes
Enforces Supabase Row-Level Security policies within agent queries, ensuring that agents can only access rows permitted by RLS rules defined in the database. Evaluates policies based on authenticated user context (JWT claims, user ID) and applies WHERE clause filters automatically, preventing unauthorized data access at the database layer rather than application layer.
Unique: Delegates authorization enforcement to PostgreSQL RLS policies rather than implementing authorization in agent code, ensuring that data access rules are centralized and cannot be bypassed by agent logic
vs alternatives: More secure than application-level authorization because RLS is enforced at the database layer, preventing accidental data leaks even if agent code has bugs
